Brewers Take a 2-0 NLCS Lead — Can the Dodgers Stop Milwaukee?

The Milwaukee Brewers have taken a commanding 2-0 NLCS lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the boys are feeling pretty good about it.

We break down Milwaukee’s first two wins, why this Brewers team feels different from previous postseason squads, William Contreras’ big performance, the bullpen’s dominance, and the mistakes the Brewers still need to eliminate as the series shifts to Los Angeles.

Then we turn to the Dodgers and one of the biggest questions of the postseason: what is going on with Shohei Ohtani? We debate whether Dave Roberts should shake up the lineup, whether Ohtani’s injury is affecting him more than the Dodgers are admitting, and what Los Angeles needs to do to get back into the series.

We also discuss the Joey Ortiz/David Hamilton lineup decision, give our updated series predictions, look ahead at the potential World Series matchups, and finish things off with another baseball guessing game.

The Brewers are two wins away. Can they finish the job?
